Chapter 562: Observe Like a Groundhog
The entrance to the underground passage is on the side of the marmot house.
The next sign is titled "Marmot's Cave", and it depicts a cross-section of a marmot's nest in the form of a cartoon, with two scenes: winter and summer.
When tourists come here, they can't help but stop and take a look.
It reads: "Marmots' usual life, in addition to eating, is to make holes, generally the cave is 5-10 meters long, 2-3 meters deep, and there are five or six exits on the ground to connect to the inside of the cave."
Caves can be used not only to give birth, rest and hide, but also to hibernate and escape from the bad weather. ”
The winter scene is of a fierce-eyed fox chasing a rabbit in the snow, and stops helplessly at the entrance to the cave, where the rabbit glances back happily and runs down with a puff of smoke.
Except for a marmot cowered into a nest at the bottom, snorting and sleeping, the nest is inhabited by skunks and snakes.
Indicates that they will use marmot nests, with a text note next to it.
For example, next to a rabbit: "A rabbit has escaped into a marmot burrow to avoid a fox, and the snow outside is so big and deep that it may hide here for days." ”
Next to the marmot is written: "Marmots generally live in cold places and nest in their comfortable and warm nests all winter." Generally, hibernation begins in mid-October. In the second year, at the end of March and the beginning of April, the hibernation ends and becomes active. ”
In the summer scene, grass grows on the ground, there are a few cute little marmots in the nest, and the roommates have also changed. Marmots stand at the entrance to their nests, looking around and on guard.
"In the spring, marmots come out of their nests and start looking for females, and if they come across another male, the two males will have a fierce fight.
After mating, the conceived female marmot begins to latch on to the grass to make a nest, and after a month gives birth to cubs, usually 1-9 cubs, and the cubs can be out of the burrow in early June. ”
The last time Lin Hao came, the plateau exhibition area had just opened, and there were many tourists, all waiting to line up to play, but they couldn't finish it.
I'm still curious about the special scenery in the marmot house!
Not to mention that there is such a sign at the entrance, which is dedicated to introducing the burrow of marmots, which stimulates the interest of tourists and raises the desire to go down and play.
Everyone went to see the flamingos today, and there weren't many people here, so they went down without queuing.
A few people walked down the passage, and the passage below was a round arch with an earthy yellow wall, and there was indeed a feeling of shrinking the body and walking in the tunnel of the marmot's nest, which was very wonderful.
At the end of the day, you will find a pyramid-shaped glass cover.
The people in front didn't finish reading it, and they had to wait for a while, so Lin Hao looked at the display board next to him by the way.
The picture accompanying this display is the scene of marmots standing guard at the entrance of the cave: "Marmots, as social animals, often arrange a sentry to stand guard at the entrance of the cave or at the edge of the activity area during group activities to prevent brown bears, Tibetan foxes, wolves or birds of prey in the sky from sneaking attacks."
As soon as a dangerous situation arises, marmots will stand and emit short screams to alert their companions to be on the lookout side. ”
When the tourists in front of them came down, the three of them stood on the platform with great interest, and their heads poked out from the ground!
As soon as I got out of the ground, I saw a groundhog less than half a meter away, which put its two paws on its stomach.
Turning its head, revealing its large fangs, it stared blankly at them with black eyes.
As soon as the stomach was stiff and the chest was closed, "chirp ~ chirp" alerted.
At the beginning of the tourist, a large group of marmots were so frightened that they went underground, and the tourists looked lonely.
Now I often see people peeping from here, and I know that there is no danger, and I slowly get used to it.
Hearing the alarm, several marmots in the distance glanced over here, and continued to dig holes that should be dug and guarded.
Daigo looked left and right: "Eh, do you feel like we're like three gophers?" ”
"Hahahaha!" Several people immediately laughed, not to mention quite vivid!
Lin Hao took out his mobile phone and took a photo, and said with a smile: "This design is really interesting!" I really admire the Linhai Zoo, the marmot is an animal, and the exhibition hall can make some tricks. ”
When you visit in this environment, you can feel the vitality and beauty of the animals without introduction.
Coupled with the careful matching of popular science exhibition boards, when tourists come to visit, it is natural and happy to understand popular science knowledge.
Lily sighed: "Groundhogs also need to dig holes, the last time I went to the mall, I saw a mini zoo, there is a layer of bedding on the ground of the marmot house, the breeding conditions are so poor, and they can also be fed and contacted, saying that marmots are docile and docile, are they really not afraid of getting sick." There are also parrots chained to shelves, with their heads buried under their wings, and they look very depressed. ”
Dawu said: "This kind of mini zoo is all spicy chicken, which is pure Huohuo animals. ”
……
After visiting the marmot house, come to the rabbit hall.
The rabbit is now one of the most popular star animals in the zoo, after all, other lions and tigers can be seen in basically every zoo, and there are zoos with elephants as big as they are.
And it also comes with its own emojis.
Visitors will gather in front of the glass curtain wall, holding their breath, looking focused, not knowing what they are looking at!
Lin Hao and the others hurriedly ran over, what happened? There's something you can't miss.
It turns out that the two rabbits of the Great Sage and the Lantern Festival don't know why, they are confronting each other, preparing to fight!
The Great Sage stood on the perch, looking unhappy—a little more unhappy than usual, exuding an awe-inspiring aura all over his body.
Walking with a cat step, he is pressing towards the Lantern Festival.
The reaction of the Lantern Festival was also intense!
Pouting his ass to the side, his head still facing the great sage, opening his mouth wide and pretending to be vicious.
Don't come here, come here and bite you again!
However, the posture of the body preparing to escape has already exposed its weakness!
Daigo speculated curiously, "Without food, is this a fight for family status?" Eh, which of these two are you? I wonder which unlucky guy got bullied! ”
Lin Hao said: "Rabbit raccoon seems to be able to identify individuals by eyebrows!" ”
There are two raccoon dogs on the display next to them with different eyebrow marks, but tourists generally can't tell them when they see them.
The Great Sage took another step forward, and suddenly the Lantern Festival jumped to the ground!
One turned over, and "Meow" let out a very fierce loud sound, trying to scare off the pursuing Great Sage.
Staring at round eyes, flat head and short legs, and fried hair, he looks fierce and cute.
The two raccoon confronted each other, and after a while, the tanuki got up from the ground and ran to the back house with a smoke.
The Great Sage did not continue the pursuit, came to the edge of a stone, rubbed his big fluffy face against the stone, his eyes narrowed, and his ears trembled.
Then he jumped on the rock, and the beach became a lump again, like a puddle of cake, and observed the tourists outside with serious eyes.
